Mid-century modern masterpiece by renowned architect Carl Cox, custom-built in 1978 and thoughtfully remodeled with over $150k in upgrades. Perched on the 11th hole of Big Rock Golf Course, this home captures sweeping views of the greens and Chocolate Mountains, all with no HOA. The main residence features a dramatic sunken living room with cathedral ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an updated fireplace. A sleek modern kitchen with black cabinetry opens to an entertainer’s patio with a built-in BBQ island. The primary suite offers a Japanese soaking tub and a private "air-drying" patio for spa-like relaxation. A detached casita provides flexible space for rental income, guest quarters, or a private office. Additional highlights include custom fireplaces, a wine fridge, a new pool and spa (2024), and contemporary design throughout. Currently operating as a successful short-term rental with AvantStay, this property offers both luxury living and strong investment potential. Ideally located near premier dining, shopping, and desert festivals, don’t miss this one-of-a-kind La Quinta gem.
